Super Bowl LVIII: San Francisco 49ers vs. Kansas City Chiefs

Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter

Chiefs WR Kadarius Toney, who scored a touchdown during Kansas City’s Super Bow win over Philadelphia one year ago, is not expected to play today for Super Bowl LVIII, per league source. Toney was off the final Super Bowl LVIII injury report.

Real blow to the Niners...

Go Taylor Swift!!!

to knock that smile off the witch! Throw some water on her!

prediction.



I'm kind of rooting for San Fran here.

unless they're playing Dallas/Philly.

I could NEVER root for the 49ers. After Philadelphia & Dallas, I consider them our biggest rival. Too much history.

I like how they play, partial to Spags, and I like that if Mahomes wins there is legitimate conversation happening over best QB ever.

Live in Chiefs territory with a bunch of insufferable fans.

Quite the conundrum.

Financial motivation- they’ve been the best team for much of the year. Think they spoil the Swift show but that’s ok for the NFL as they got her to the Super Bowl

This really is amazing.

really hoping for something like Bills and Lions.

At least the Eagles and Cowboys didn't make it.

THAT would've been ideal. I don't like the idea of the Chiefs equaling the Giants in SB victories, but it's better than the Niners winning their 6th SB title. Too much history with them.

I host every year and usually have a manageable group of immediate family.

Saturday and Sunday I re-watch the 4 Giant wins and if I’m able to fit it in, the America’s Team episodes from each of the winning years.

We also try doing themed dishes for the cities involved. Today it’s Seafood chowder in sour dough bread bowls, garlic fries and some kind of ice cream sandwich for San Francisco and smoked brisket and ribs for KC.

Finally we do a prop sheet for the kids. We all throw in $5 and the person who gets the most props right wins the pot.

Hopefully everyone enjoys whatever you do today. It’s really a fantastic day for all fans.

1. Mahomes is Mahomes …he alone is worth the price of admission and
2. Another good showing by Spags’ guys.

I think the Niners are the better overall team, but in big games you go with the best coach / QB combination and this favors the Chiefs.

for my numbers in the numerous pools Im in, then reluctantly rooting for 9ers. Tired of the Kielce/ Swift bullshit, hope SF kills them.
That being said, if I had to bet on one it would be KC. Better QB, better D.

I that TODAY?!

Cant route for them ever. But I feel everyone is distracted with all things Cheifs. Niners should be -4 or more favorites. Think they win easy.

Go with 9'ers as worst of two evils.
Had it been Philthy or Cowpukes, would have gone Chiefs

Down to their dline. From what I have watched they have been disappointing with the talent they have on that dline.

If they step up today and allow SanFran not to blitz Mahomes while getting a lot of pressure I think it could be a close game. Otherwise I see this as a runaway chiefs win.

1984 divisional
1986 divisional
1990 championship game
1993 divisional
2002 wildcard
2011 championship game

Not to mention some huge MNF games in the 80s

The play Bill Belichick is most haunted by is the week 2 1988 Montana to Rice 78 yd bomb to win with 48 secs left

This team probably threw the 88 season finale to keep us out of playoffs .

I think we played the most amount of important games with 49ers

Let’s go my boxes!

Betting aside, I really don't care who wins this game at all. These two teams mean nothing to me. Just glad Dallas and Philly are out.

There are some statistical indicators that point to Christian McCaffrey being the big star at the end of the night. That guy puts on a SB MVP performance doing the things he does and he becomes a true superstar that America’s grandmas are familiar with. I think if I’m going by my “brain”, then SanFran 31-23 or something like that with McCaffrey going off.

But KC and Mahomes are just Magic at this point. I would never count them out even down 20 heading into the 4th. They’re the team of this era and betting against them is always going to be tough.

Just rooting for a fun game. A blowout either way would suck.

....I'm a big believer in what was consistent during the regular season rears its ugly head in crunch time.

KC's offense does not produce in the second half. That's going to be a big part of this game.

Mets, he grew up in the Queens outfield with the team.
Love the way he plays the position.
A pleasure to watch this team

And think Spags is smart enough to gameplan to make Purdy beat them and that I dont see. Give me KC winning tonight, and it's wild that you can alt line KC +7.5 and a CMAC anytime TD parlay at +110. Have been leaning KC the past 2 weeks, with Toney out, feel like it's inevitable

Couldn’t agree more.

Is that the lost member of the Spice Girls?

.

I don’t have any serious rooting interests.

How do Giants' fans not root against the Niners?

Maybe an age thing where the younger folks don't remember the losses?

Including Mariucci's, "Bummer" comment, along with the 80's and early 90's rivalry.

Has to be an age thing. *grin*

49ers. I like McCaffrey and can’t stand Mr. Pfizer.

and anti Pfizer fans will root for Niners.

Giant fans who remember the tough losses to the Niners will root for the Chiefs.

Got it.

a spot in a Domino's commercial. Not bad for an undrafted 3rd string QB.

Yup. MSM and the NFL shoving both of them down your throat. Let’s go Niners….but the refs like KC so Trav can propose to Swift….🤮

Making the SB!

.

Win a good and enjoyable game..

Imagine what rooting for a good team must feel like.

The 49ers are a better team than who faced the Chiefs in the last SB. I think it's going to be a tight game regarding the scoring.

the guy who looks ridiculous

It makes me laugh that Toney was benched.

By Post Malone.
